The years between 1914 and 2024 constitute a period of unparalleled economic growth, scientific advancement, political development, and social change - in just over 100 years, human civilization has moved from an industrial to a digital age. However, they also cover some of the most dangerous, violent, and politically volatile years in human history. In these years, two world wars have been fought, weapons of mass destruction dropped, authoritarian and democratic regimes alike have risen and fallen, and regional conflicts have been almost continuous, effectively conjoining World War I, World War II, the Cold War and the Russo-Ukrainian war. This volume indicates that the 1914 July Crisis, which set in motion a sequence of events that spanned over 100 years. Containing a range of colourful maps and charts, this book graphically illustrates the arguments presented in both an informative and visual way.
This atlas will serve as a perfect textbook for students studying history, geography, politics and international relations, as well as being a useful guide to contemporary world politics for researchers, and for those interesting in the international relations and modern history.
